KNEW HIM WHEN HE
WAS A BOY ON FARM
Highland County Democratic
Executive Committee Unanimously Praises H. G. Mosier,
Congressman-at-Large, For
Services To Ohio, and Backs
Him For a Second Term.
HAS HARD COMMON SENSE
HAROLD G. MOSIER
Congressman-at-Large From Ohio
By BEN LONG
There is an old saying to the effect that "A prophet is seldom recognized in his own community." On the
other hand, when a boy is born in a
certain town or county, reared in it,
and then goes into the outside world
and makes good in a big way people
who knew him when he was a lad
take pride in telling the public all
about his early days.
This by way of introducing evidence
to show that Highland county has not
forgotten the youngster it knew as
Harold G. Mosier, a farm boy, who
liked to visit Hillsboro, the county
seat, when the circus came to town
or the band played.
Conservative County
A conservative community is _ Hillsboro; a friendly town, a section of
Ohio from whence many able men
first inhaled the inspiration that in
later years caused them to become
distinguished in journalism, the law,
medicine, and in the marts of trade.
Population considered, Highland county has written its name in large, letters, not only in Ohio, but in all parts
of the United States, and the letters
have stood for integrity and service.
Committee Endorses Mosier
Recently the Highland County Democratic Executive committee, Kenneth
Perneau of Highland, chairman, passed a resolution endorsing Congressman-at-Large Mosier for a second
term, and praising him for the able
manner in which he represents all
the people of his native state at the
National Capital.
At the Mosier campaign headquarters, 1118 Fidelity building, Cleveland,
George Winter reports that "Nominating petitions are being returned filled
from all parts of Ohio."
Recalls Early Days
Although a distinguished member
of the Ohio Bar, Harold G. Mosier
has never for a moment forgotten his
early days in Highland county when
he milked cows, 'tended the stock, and
did many of the chores on a farm. No
doubt that is one reason he is always
willing to battle in or out of Congress for the agriculturist.
It must give him great satisfaction
to know that the county in which he
was born and reared is among the
first to recognize his great range of
activity on all public questions, his
powers of reasoning, and his hard
common sense.
The great state of Ohio needs
Harold G. Mosier and his kind of
courage which faces issues and reaches firm decisions. The radiant kind,
which drives out cowardice from
minds which come within its range. .

VISIT MINERVA
To Be Guests of Democrats In
Park On Friday Night.
The members of the Jackson club
of Stark county, an organization composed of many of the best known and
substantial men in the county, will
hold a meeting in Minerva park, Minerva, on Friday, May 27, at 7:30 p.m.
The Democrats of Minerva will
play hosts, so it is almost needless to
add that the members of the Jackson
club and their guests are in for an excellent time. Minerva park is an
ideal spot to spend a few happy
hours.
E. J. Lattin, secretary of the Jackson club, notified The Sun yesterday
(Tuesday) that transportation will be
found for members unable to use their
own cars. To secure the transportation it is necessary to be at the south
door of the courthouse, Canton, at
0:30 p.m. on Friday.
Members of the club having room
for passengers will be expected to
take an extra rider.
H. C. SCHOOL HEWS
N. C. High Wins Sportsmanship
Trophy In Stark County
Each year the Stark county Athletic association awards to a school in
the county a sportsmanship trophy
for the school that has shown the best
sportsmanship at the county athletic
games.
Five patrons from each community
and ten students from each school
who have participated in athletic
sports, cast a ballot for the school of
their choice and each official of the
games casts a ballot.
Fifteen schools of the county participate in this. No one school gets
all the votes. Every school in the
county received some votes this year.
This year North Canton received
the highest ranking. Hartville and
Middlebranch were close runners up.
All opponents of any winner of this
trophy deserve credit for their part
in helping a school to win.
PUPILS GET AWARDS
FOR GOOD WORK
Senior Class Was Outstanding
This Year In Many Things.
On Monday, May 23, at the high
school assembly the various awards
earned by the pupils during the year
were presented. Among these were
the letters for football and basketball,
literary and debate, certificates from
the county for participation in literary, debate and music were also given
out.
The various awards earned by pupils from the scholarship tests in the
district and the state were presented.
Also recognition was given to the pupil in the senior class who was the
most outstanding in citizenship. This
award went to Margaret Mohler with

A special award to the senior who
had the most outstanding scholarship
throughout the four years in high
school was given to Mildred Sumser
with honorable mention to Ruth Wagner.

GOTMfPOPPY?
They Went On Sale In North
Canton This Morning.
Members of the Legion Auxiliary
were out early this Wednesday morn
ing selling the little red (lower made
by disabled World War veterans in
hospitals and other institutions where
they take care of men unable to work
in the outside world.
If you were overlooked by accident,
hunt up one of the patriotic young
persons selling the poppy and buy one.
The sum expended is small, but it
will help bring some extra comfort
to the man who gave the brow to the
enemy when your country was in
danger.
CHINESE WILL FIGHT
JAPAN WON'T PROFIT
The Rev. Edwin A. Beck, Who
Has Spent Many Years In the
Far East As a Missionary Told
Men In Zion Reformed Church
Last Night That "Economic
Strain Will Defeat Japanese."
STILL A MIGHTY PEOPLE
A first cousin of the Rev. Dr. Melvin E. Beck, the Rev. Edwin A. Beck,
missionary to China, addressed the
Brotherhood of Zion Reformed church
at a fellowship supper on Tuesday,
last night. He said in part:
.We find folks are very human all
the world over. Even those we fear
and suspect we often leam when we
know them more intimately. Chinese
merchants build up splendid loyalties
with their patrons, and some of our
most valued associations are with
merchants, bankers, and contractors
who have served us.
Anti-Foreign Boycott
When anti-foreign prejudice swept
over China in 1925 in consequence of
the unfortunate "May 30th incident"
and shops were closed in boycotts, our
family grocer closed his shop, that is,
the shop front was boarded up, but
his messenger came to our house to
inform us that "the back door was
open" and as long as he had anything
on his shelves it was at our disposal.
China Is Advancing
There later years, say six or seven,
under the leadership of General Chiang and Madam Chiang, have seen
wonderful progress in railroad extension, construction of motor roads, long
distance telephone, air routes, currency reform, and new life movement.
An unfriendly neighbor is now trying hard to smash this rising spirit
of a mighty people.
The probability is that the next few
weeks will see a desperate effort to
take the present capital, Hankow. But
even if worst comes to worst, and
Hankow falls even as Nanking did,
and that all the effective armies of
Chiang Kai-Shek are dispersed, still
there will be enough widespread guerilla resistance that the Japanese will
be unable to profit by their "conquest." Economic strains will defeat
Japan in the end.
Sails For China On June 7
The Rev. Edwin A. Beck sails from
Vancouver on June 7 to continue hi.s
work in the Far East.

Like News From Home
Editors The Sun: As we were sitting around the table this evening
reading the news we also had with

community. Best regard to all.
As ever, Mr. and Mrs. Ira Denious,
Curtis, Michigan, May 23, 1938.
Gospel Tabernacle Members Are
Appealing To Public.
The Gospel Tabernacle, located on
Charlotte street opposite the North
Canton high school, has started a
campaign to raise the sum of $1850
for the purchase of a bus, gnd the
members of the congregation are relying upon the generosity of the public to help them secure the vehicle.
"The Gospel Tabernacle membership is too small to purchase a bus,
that is the reason we are appealing
to the general public," said one of the
members to a writer for The Sun.
"Any amount will be gratefully received, and I can assure you it will
be used in a good cause."
He also suggested that the following words from Luke be printed:
Luke 6:3S. "Give and it shall be given
unto you, good measure pressed down
and shaken together and running over
shall men give unto your bosom, for
with the same measure that ye meet
with, all shall be measured to you
again.

Smith of North Main street. Tho
topic to be discussed is "Family Sex
Problems," and will be led by Mrs.
Charles Howes. All mothers are invited.
Congressman William R. Thom of
Canton several years ago announced
that he would derive much pleasure
from showing high school graduates
and others from this congressional
district around Washington and Annapolis, Maryland.
_ "Bill" meant every word of it, and
since that day he has been 'squiring
as they say in swagger circles, delegations from all parts of this district.
This week Preston Lawrence, as-,
sistant superintendent of schools,
Jackson township, and Miss Frances
Hill, senior class sponsor, Hartville
schools received letters from Congressman Thom telling them he will
be pleased to show students from the
above-named schools all around Washington this week or next. Mr. Thom
has arranged for the students to board
a battleship at Annapolis, home of
the naval academy.
These tours are not "just rush
arounds." They take in everything.
And trust "Bill" to see it personally,
that the children of his contituents
do not miss a thing while guests of
the congressman."

BEAUTIFUL ANNUAL
Is the Hi-Lite Published By the
Students of Greensburg.
On the editorial desk of Thc Sun
is a copy of Hi-Lite, 1938, published
by the senior class of Greensburg
high school. Greensburg elementary
and East Liberty elementary are featured in the annual. The publication
is dedicated to Miss Margaret Meloy,
English and foreign language teacher,
and a leader in the Girl Reserves.
The Greensburg high school and the
elementary schools of Greensburg and
East Liberty are under the direction
of Allen Kuder, whose work as a
teacher and superintendent has made
him one of thc outstanding educate)"*
in Ohio. He is supported by an able
staff, headed by Forrest G. Miller,
principal of the high school.
The illustrations, the text, the beautiful cover of navy blue and lettering
of white would do credit to a college
of national renown. Typographically
the Hi-Lite is a work of art. Not a
blemish in its pages.
The Sun modestly acknowledges
printing the volume, and it is another
proof of the slogan, "Sun printers
know how to print."
memory for thousands of young
men and women in Ohio after
this week. The Sun trusts the "memory" will be a pleasant one. Many of
the graduates will not go to college,
but that does not mean that in the
years to come they will not be leaders
in the business or professional world.
In this editorial The Sun will use
the word "man," but in this instance
it means men and women. This editorial will be blunt, and the writer
hopes, to the point. So get this in
your mind, young man: You will be
just "one of the crowd" if your attitude toward life is, "I don't know
where I'm going; but I'm on my
way!"
It is the young man who knows
where he is going, and keeps on in a
straight line, who usually reaches the
farther point first. It isn't luck that
sustains him and spurs him on. It is
pluck! To want a thing tremendously—to deny yourself for it, to fight
for it, suffer for it, to keep on and
on striving after it! And above all
to believe in it and yourself, and
never be daunted by the obstacles in
your way.
It cannot be denied that fortunate
circumstances, or "luck," as some
people call it, play a part in many
successful careers. The" unexpected
opening, the chance introduction, the
other fellow's mistake—these and
many similar incidents have been the
means of giving many a man the opportunity that leads to bigger things.
But luck ends there. It never lias
been, and never can be, a substitute
for application, grit, intelligence, foresight and unrelenting purpose.
Another thing, undoubtedly the
most important of all—do not get the
"swelled head" just because some one
tells you "You know your stull'."
That is the dangerous stage. An inflated cranium lias been responsible
for tlie downfall of millions of young-
men. If you watch an expert in any
line work the most remaricable thing
about him is that he never seems to
be doing much, yet the job gets done,
and well done, in an astonishingly
short time. That is because he concentrates on the job at hand.
The raw materials of thought are
facts. And your job is to provide
your brain with tacts, with knowledge, with information, by reading,
by careful observation, and by study.
But, and The Sun is repeating the
advice because it likes young people
and desires to see them successtul,
keep your feet on the ground and
your head from swelling.
That is all. Now, young man, go
out and "make good," as so many
have done before you came on tho
scene, better known as "The Battle of
Life."

LEGION TO BE IN CHARGE
Memorial Day a Day For Thought
ONDAY next, May 30, is Memorial
day. We always shall have Memorial day, but we cannot hope
much longer to have thc man whose
day it is. True, May 30 has come to
be a general national day of commemoration of our dead in all wars.
But we must not forget who it was
that established Memorial day. It
was the G. A. R. man. It was and is
his day.
Slowly at fust, then with increasing speed, the one foeman whom the
G. A. R. man could not stop has made
his inexorable advance. Only a scattered guard holds the last trench.
The others have gone, not in defeat
or surrender, but to receive the victor's final accolade.
Most of us are not too young^ to
remember when "old soldier" hail just
one meaning. There is -glory enough
for all our heroes of more . recent
wars. But this is the day of the
"old soldier" of lSGl-(!5. He is a
much older "old soldier" than when
we watched him march on Memorial
day with his brother veterans. His
marching days are over. But when
he rides by on Monday, recall that he
i.s the man for whom Memorial day
was made. He cannot celebrate many
more of them, so the Spanish-American war veterans, veterans of Foreign
Wars, and the veterans of the World
War are carrying on for him, and
LOOK WHO'S HERE!
Raymond J. Jeffreys Coming To
Greentown Friday Night.
after they have passed from the scene
their sons, grandsons and great-
grandsons will march to cemeteries
and place flowers on the graves. Other
"days" may sink into oblivion, but
Memorial day will never die.
Armistice day is the day of thc
veterans of the World War. It is an
occasion on which it is proper to recall their valor and the victories they
won. If the American boys who
fought and died on foreign soil did
not make the world safe for democracy it was not their fault.
It is well that there should be a
day on which their deeds are recalled.
But it is also well at a time like the
present Memorial day when it should
be made a day of consideration of
the measures that may be taken to
prevent repetition of the years of
horror and suffering which ended
when the guns ceased firing in
France.
The American Legion has a duty to
perform and The Sun is pleased to
report that the members are going
about that duty like true-blue Americans. They do not want the United
States to interfere in the quarrel between certain countries in Europe,
neither do they favor granting tho
followers in this country of Hitler,
Mussolini, Stalin or other dictators
the right to destroy the American
system of government.
TO GREET ROBT. TAFT
Stores To Close Monday
All business places in North Canton will be closed all day on Monday,
Schafer & Messerly and Cameron, excepted. They will observe Sunday
hours, S:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. The
postoffice will not be open on Monday.
Every section in The Sun's territory will pay homage to the nation's
honored dead on Monday.
Last week Tho Sun contained the
North Canton American Legion Post
Memorial day program in full, so
there is nothing new. However, it
may refresh the memory to mention
a few of the high spots on the program.
On Sunday evening the members of
the Legion will meet at the Post
home on West Maple and from there
go to St. Paul's Catholic church for
a Memorial day service and hear an
address by the pastor.
Memorial Day Program
On Monday (Memorial day) the following will be the program: At
9:00 a.m. the Legion and Auxiliary
will assemble at St. Paul's cemetery
to decorate the graves and hold the
Legion ritual services.
Leaving by motor caravan at 9:30
all are invited to go to the North
Canton cemetery where the following
service will be held at 10:00 a.m.-

Raymond J. Jeffreys, whose signature occupies more room than the one
John Hancock placed on the immortal
Declaration of Independence, and in
whose honor an insurance company
was named, notified The Sun that he
is to address the graduates of Greentown high school on Fridav night,
May 27, at 8:00 o'clock.
He is a handsome bloke, is Raymond, and he is intelligent. He proved
that when he quit journalism for the
lecture platform. His mug will
brighten this page, that is why the
editors are using it today.
Seriously, Jeffreys has a message,
and he delivers it with just enough
sugar that it does not leave a nasty
taste. He is a philosopher, and like
a true philosopher, he has a keen
sense of humor.
Greentown graduates and the people
in that wholesome town are to be
congratulated that Jeffreys is to make
the commencement address. The one
regret of the editors of The Sun is
that they will be unable to hear him.

This by way of introducing evidence
to show that Highland county has not
forgotten the youngster it knew as
Harold G. Mosier, a farm boy, who
liked to visit Hillsboro, the county
seat, when the circus came to town
or the band played.
Conservative County
A conservative community is _ Hillsboro; a friendly town, a section of
Ohio from whence many able men
first inhaled the inspiration that in
later years caused them to become
distinguished in journalism, the law,
medicine, and in the marts of trade.
Population considered, Highland county has written its name in large, letters, not only in Ohio, but in all parts
of the United States, and the letters
have stood for integrity and service.
Committee Endorses Mosier
Recently the Highland County Democratic Executive committee, Kenneth
Perneau of Highland, chairman, passed a resolution endorsing Congressman-at-Large Mosier for a second
term, and praising him for the able
manner in which he represents all
the people of his native state at the
National Capital.
At the Mosier campaign headquarters, 1118 Fidelity building, Cleveland,
George Winter reports that "Nominating petitions are being returned filled
from all parts of Ohio."
Recalls Early Days
Although a distinguished member
of the Ohio Bar, Harold G. Mosier
has never for a moment forgotten his
early days in Highland county when
he milked cows, 'tended the stock, and
did many of the chores on a farm. No
doubt that is one reason he is always
willing to battle in or out of Congress for the agriculturist.
It must give him great satisfaction
to know that the county in which he
was born and reared is among the
first to recognize his great range of
activity on all public questions, his
powers of reasoning, and his hard
common sense.
The great state of Ohio needs
Harold G. Mosier and his kind of
courage which faces issues and reaches firm decisions. The radiant kind,
which drives out cowardice from
minds which come within its range. .

VISIT MINERVA
To Be Guests of Democrats In
Park On Friday Night.
The members of the Jackson club
of Stark county, an organization composed of many of the best known and
substantial men in the county, will
hold a meeting in Minerva park, Minerva, on Friday, May 27, at 7:30 p.m.
The Democrats of Minerva will
play hosts, so it is almost needless to
add that the members of the Jackson
club and their guests are in for an excellent time. Minerva park is an
ideal spot to spend a few happy
hours.
E. J. Lattin, secretary of the Jackson club, notified The Sun yesterday
(Tuesday) that transportation will be
found for members unable to use their
own cars. To secure the transportation it is necessary to be at the south
door of the courthouse, Canton, at
0:30 p.m. on Friday.
Members of the club having room
for passengers will be expected to
take an extra rider.
H. C. SCHOOL HEWS
N. C. High Wins Sportsmanship
Trophy In Stark County
Each year the Stark county Athletic association awards to a school in
the county a sportsmanship trophy
for the school that has shown the best
sportsmanship at the county athletic
games.
Five patrons from each community
and ten students from each school
who have participated in athletic
sports, cast a ballot for the school of
their choice and each official of the
games casts a ballot.
Fifteen schools of the county participate in this. No one school gets
all the votes. Every school in the
county received some votes this year.
This year North Canton received
the highest ranking. Hartville and
Middlebranch were close runners up.
All opponents of any winner of this
trophy deserve credit for their part
in helping a school to win.
PUPILS GET AWARDS

Members of the Legion Auxiliary
were out early this Wednesday morn

by disabled World War veterans in
hospitals and other institutions where
they take care of men unable to work

If you were overlooked by accident,
hunt up one of the patriotic young

The sum expended is small, but it
will help bring some extra comfort

CHINESE WILL FIGHT
JAPAN WON'T PROFIT
The Rev. Edwin A. Beck, Who
Has Spent Many Years In the
Far East As a Missionary Told
Men In Zion Reformed Church
Last Night That "Economic
Strain Will Defeat Japanese."
STILL A MIGHTY PEOPLE
A first cousin of the Rev. Dr. Melvin E. Beck, the Rev. Edwin A. Beck,
missionary to China, addressed the
Brotherhood of Zion Reformed church
at a fellowship supper on Tuesday,
last night. He said in part:
.We find folks are very human all
the world over. Even those we fear
and suspect we often leam when we
know them more intimately. Chinese
merchants build up splendid loyalties
with their patrons, and some of our
most valued associations are with
merchants, bankers, and contractors
who have served us.
Anti-Foreign Boycott
When anti-foreign prejudice swept
over China in 1925 in consequence of
the unfortunate "May 30th incident"
and shops were closed in boycotts, our
family grocer closed his shop, that is,
the shop front was boarded up, but
his messenger came to our house to
inform us that "the back door was
open" and as long as he had anything
on his shelves it was at our disposal.
China Is Advancing
There later years, say six or seven,
under the leadership of General Chiang and Madam Chiang, have seen
wonderful progress in railroad extension, construction of motor roads, long
distance telephone, air routes, currency reform, and new life movement.
An unfriendly neighbor is now trying hard to smash this rising spirit
of a mighty people.
The probability is that the next few
weeks will see a desperate effort to
take the present capital, Hankow. But
even if worst comes to worst, and
Hankow falls even as Nanking did,
and that all the effective armies of
Chiang Kai-Shek are dispersed, still
there will be enough widespread guerilla resistance that the Japanese will
be unable to profit by their "conquest." Economic strains will defeat
Japan in the end.
Sails For China On June 7
The Rev. Edwin A. Beck sails from
Vancouver on June 7 to continue hi.s
work in the Far East.

Editors The Sun: As we were sitting around the table this evening
reading the news we also had with

As ever, Mr. and Mrs. Ira Denious,
Curtis, Michigan, May 23, 1938.
Gospel Tabernacle Members Are
Appealing To Public.
The Gospel Tabernacle, located on
Charlotte street opposite the North
Canton high school, has started a
campaign to raise the sum of $1850
for the purchase of a bus, gnd the
members of the congregation are relying upon the generosity of the public to help them secure the vehicle.
"The Gospel Tabernacle membership is too small to purchase a bus,
that is the reason we are appealing
to the general public," said one of the
members to a writer for The Sun.
"Any amount will be gratefully received, and I can assure you it will
be used in a good cause."
He also suggested that the following words from Luke be printed:
Luke 6:3S. "Give and it shall be given
unto you, good measure pressed down
and shaken together and running over
shall men give unto your bosom, for
with the same measure that ye meet
with, all shall be measured to you
again.

Smith of North Main street. Tho
topic to be discussed is "Family Sex
Problems," and will be led by Mrs.
Charles Howes. All mothers are invited.
Congressman William R. Thom of
Canton several years ago announced
that he would derive much pleasure
from showing high school graduates
and others from this congressional
district around Washington and Annapolis, Maryland.
_ "Bill" meant every word of it, and
since that day he has been 'squiring
as they say in swagger circles, delegations from all parts of this district.
This week Preston Lawrence, as-,
sistant superintendent of schools,
Jackson township, and Miss Frances
Hill, senior class sponsor, Hartville
schools received letters from Congressman Thom telling them he will
be pleased to show students from the
above-named schools all around Washington this week or next. Mr. Thom
has arranged for the students to board
a battleship at Annapolis, home of
the naval academy.
These tours are not "just rush
arounds." They take in everything.
And trust "Bill" to see it personally,
that the children of his contituents
do not miss a thing while guests of
the congressman."

BEAUTIFUL ANNUAL
Is the Hi-Lite Published By the
Students of Greensburg.
On the editorial desk of Thc Sun
is a copy of Hi-Lite, 1938, published
by the senior class of Greensburg
high school. Greensburg elementary
and East Liberty elementary are featured in the annual. The publication
is dedicated to Miss Margaret Meloy,
English and foreign language teacher,
and a leader in the Girl Reserves.
The Greensburg high school and the
elementary schools of Greensburg and
East Liberty are under the direction
of Allen Kuder, whose work as a
teacher and superintendent has made
him one of thc outstanding educate)"*
in Ohio. He is supported by an able
staff, headed by Forrest G. Miller,
principal of the high school.
The illustrations, the text, the beautiful cover of navy blue and lettering
of white would do credit to a college
of national renown. Typographically
the Hi-Lite is a work of art. Not a
blemish in its pages.
The Sun modestly acknowledges
printing the volume, and it is another
proof of the slogan, "Sun printers
know how to print."
memory for thousands of young
men and women in Ohio after
this week. The Sun trusts the "memory" will be a pleasant one. Many of
the graduates will not go to college,
but that does not mean that in the
years to come they will not be leaders
in the business or professional world.
In this editorial The Sun will use
the word "man," but in this instance
it means men and women. This editorial will be blunt, and the writer
hopes, to the point. So get this in
your mind, young man: You will be
just "one of the crowd" if your attitude toward life is, "I don't know
where I'm going; but I'm on my
way!"
It is the young man who knows
where he is going, and keeps on in a
straight line, who usually reaches the
farther point first. It isn't luck that
sustains him and spurs him on. It is
pluck! To want a thing tremendously—to deny yourself for it, to fight
for it, suffer for it, to keep on and
on striving after it! And above all
to believe in it and yourself, and
never be daunted by the obstacles in
your way.
It cannot be denied that fortunate
circumstances, or "luck," as some
people call it, play a part in many
successful careers. The" unexpected
opening, the chance introduction, the
other fellow's mistake—these and
many similar incidents have been the
means of giving many a man the opportunity that leads to bigger things.
But luck ends there. It never lias
been, and never can be, a substitute
for application, grit, intelligence, foresight and unrelenting purpose.
Another thing, undoubtedly the
most important of all—do not get the
"swelled head" just because some one
tells you "You know your stull'."
That is the dangerous stage. An inflated cranium lias been responsible
for tlie downfall of millions of young-
men. If you watch an expert in any
line work the most remaricable thing
about him is that he never seems to
be doing much, yet the job gets done,
and well done, in an astonishingly
short time. That is because he concentrates on the job at hand.
The raw materials of thought are
facts. And your job is to provide
your brain with tacts, with knowledge, with information, by reading,
by careful observation, and by study.
But, and The Sun is repeating the
advice because it likes young people
and desires to see them successtul,
keep your feet on the ground and
your head from swelling.
That is all. Now, young man, go
out and "make good," as so many
have done before you came on tho
scene, better known as "The Battle of
Life."

North Canton, Greentown, Hartville and Other Sections of
The Sun's Territory Will Pay

LEGION TO BE IN CHARGE
Memorial Day a Day For Thought
ONDAY next, May 30, is Memorial
day. We always shall have Memorial day, but we cannot hope
much longer to have thc man whose
day it is. True, May 30 has come to
be a general national day of commemoration of our dead in all wars.
But we must not forget who it was
that established Memorial day. It
was the G. A. R. man. It was and is
his day.
Slowly at fust, then with increasing speed, the one foeman whom the
G. A. R. man could not stop has made
his inexorable advance. Only a scattered guard holds the last trench.
The others have gone, not in defeat
or surrender, but to receive the victor's final accolade.
Most of us are not too young^ to
remember when "old soldier" hail just
one meaning. There is -glory enough
for all our heroes of more . recent
wars. But this is the day of the
"old soldier" of lSGl-(!5. He is a
much older "old soldier" than when
we watched him march on Memorial
day with his brother veterans. His
marching days are over. But when
he rides by on Monday, recall that he
i.s the man for whom Memorial day
was made. He cannot celebrate many
more of them, so the Spanish-American war veterans, veterans of Foreign
Wars, and the veterans of the World
War are carrying on for him, and
LOOK WHO'S HERE!
Raymond J. Jeffreys Coming To
Greentown Friday Night.
after they have passed from the scene
their sons, grandsons and great-
grandsons will march to cemeteries
and place flowers on the graves. Other
"days" may sink into oblivion, but
Memorial day will never die.
Armistice day is the day of thc
veterans of the World War. It is an
occasion on which it is proper to recall their valor and the victories they
won. If the American boys who
fought and died on foreign soil did
not make the world safe for democracy it was not their fault.
It is well that there should be a
day on which their deeds are recalled.
But it is also well at a time like the
present Memorial day when it should
be made a day of consideration of
the measures that may be taken to
prevent repetition of the years of
horror and suffering which ended
when the guns ceased firing in
France.
The American Legion has a duty to
perform and The Sun is pleased to
report that the members are going
about that duty like true-blue Americans. They do not want the United
States to interfere in the quarrel between certain countries in Europe,
neither do they favor granting tho
followers in this country of Hitler,
Mussolini, Stalin or other dictators
the right to destroy the American
system of government.
TO GREET ROBT. TAFT
Stores To Close Monday
All business places in North Canton will be closed all day on Monday,
Schafer & Messerly and Cameron, excepted. They will observe Sunday
hours, S:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. The
postoffice will not be open on Monday.
Every section in The Sun's territory will pay homage to the nation's
honored dead on Monday.
Last week Tho Sun contained the
North Canton American Legion Post
Memorial day program in full, so
there is nothing new. However, it
may refresh the memory to mention
a few of the high spots on the program.
On Sunday evening the members of
the Legion will meet at the Post
home on West Maple and from there
go to St. Paul's Catholic church for
a Memorial day service and hear an
address by the pastor.
Memorial Day Program
On Monday (Memorial day) the following will be the program: At
9:00 a.m. the Legion and Auxiliary
will assemble at St. Paul's cemetery
to decorate the graves and hold the
Legion ritual services.
Leaving by motor caravan at 9:30
all are invited to go to the North

Raymond J. Jeffreys, whose signature occupies more room than the one
John Hancock placed on the immortal
Declaration of Independence, and in
whose honor an insurance company
was named, notified The Sun that he
is to address the graduates of Greentown high school on Fridav night,
May 27, at 8:00 o'clock.
He is a handsome bloke, is Raymond, and he is intelligent. He proved
that when he quit journalism for the
lecture platform. His mug will
brighten this page, that is why the
editors are using it today.
Seriously, Jeffreys has a message,
and he delivers it with just enough
sugar that it does not leave a nasty
taste. He is a philosopher, and like
a true philosopher, he has a keen
sense of humor.
Greentown graduates and the people
in that wholesome town are to be
congratulated that Jeffreys is to make
the commencement address. The one
regret of the editors of The Sun is
that they will be unable to hear him.
